Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 5 vulnerabilities.

1) Type confusion

EUVDB-ID: #VU16694

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 1.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-5804

CWE-ID: CWE-369 - Divide By Zero

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to type confusion error within the "identify()" function (internal/dcraw_common.cpp). A local attacker can supply a specially crafted input, trigger divide by zero error and cause the service to crash.

Mitigation

Update the affected packages.

Vulnerable software versions

Opensuse: 42.3

https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2018-12/msg00072.html


Q & A

Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?

No. This vulnerability can be exploited locally. The attacker should have authentication credentials and successfully authenticate on the system.

Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability. However, proof of concept for this vulnerability is available.

2) Stack-based buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU16342

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 1.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-5805

CWE-ID: CWE-121 - Stack-based buffer overflow

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The weakness exists due to stack-based buffer overflow within the "quicktake_100_load_raw()" function (internal/dcraw_common.cpp). A local attacker can submit specially crafted images, trigger memory corruption and cause the service to crash.

Mitigation

Update the affected packages.

3) NULL pointer dereference

EUVDB-ID: #VU16343

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 1.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-5806

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The weakness exists due to an error within the "leaf_hdr_load_raw()" function (internal/dcraw_common.cpp).  A local attacker can submit specially crafted images, trigger NULL pointer dereference and cause the service to crash.

Mitigation

Update the affected packages.

4) Stack-based buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU16662

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 7.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-5808

CWE-ID: CWE-121 - Stack-based buffer overflow

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the find_green() function, as defined in the internal/dcraw_common.cpp source code file in LibRaw versions prior to 0.18.9. A remote attacker can trick the victim into processing a specially crafted input, trigger stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.

Mitigation

Update the affected packages.

Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote non-authenticated attacker via the Internet.

Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability. However, proof of concept for this vulnerability is available.

5) Infinite loop

EUVDB-ID: #VU16664

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-5816

CWE-ID: CWE-835 - Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a divide by zero integer overflow condition in the identify() function, as defined in the internal/dcraw_common.cpp source code file in LibRaw versions prior to 0.18.12. A remote attacker can trick the victim into processing a specially crafted NOKIARAW file, trigger an infinite loop condition and cause the service to crash.

Mitigation

Update the affected packages.
